[Subnado](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/underwater-scooters) is a compact and lightweight [underwater scooter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kikfin). The small device can fit in backpacks and travel bags, is 6cm wide, 36cm long, and 1.4kg in weight, making it the perfect portable scooter.

The Subnado has a quick-release mounting system that allows it to be secured to your arms, legs, or [surfboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-electric-surfboard). It is equipped with solid and adjustable propulsions and features two regular gears as well as a sports mode gear. Its single-engine can reach speeds of 1.4M/S, while the dual-engine tops out at 2M/S.

It is controlled by a finger ring remote to free your hands and allow you to snap underwater pictures. The device can go up to 60 meters below water, and a 1-hour charge gives you up to 56 minutes of ocean time.
